Kenneth “Cody” Rackemann, one of the four suspects in the Southeastside quadruple homicide, was composed and quick to answer a judge’s questions during an initial hearing this morning at Marion Superior Court.

Last Friday, Rackemann burst into expletives and had to be removed from the courtroom. Family members in the crowded gallery yelled “We love you, Cody!”

Today, during the second attempt to get Rackemann through his first court hearing, the alleged triggerman listened quietly, his hands clasped together under his chin, as the judge outlined the charges against him. At one point, he surveyed the audience and locked his stare toward his family on one side of the courtroom.

Court documents made public last week state that Rackemann had worked security for Burnell, a drug dealer living on South Parker Avenue. Prosecutors believe the murders were committed during a botched robbery attempt at Burnell’s house.

Witnesses told investigators that large quantities of methamphetamine, heroin, marijuana and prescription narcotics were sold at Burnell’s house, hauling about $60,000 daily.

Rackemann, his cousin Anthony “Ant” LaRussa, 26; Valencia Williams, 21; and Samantha Bradley, 20; are charged with murder, robbery and conspiracy to commit robbery. Williams is accused of firing the fatal shot that killed Navarro. All four murder suspects participated in the robbery attempt, authorities said.

Family members of Rackemann and one of the victims were in tears as they walked out of the courtroom today. Two women yelled at each other from both sides.
